    Whoo hoo!! Way to kick off your 2019 weight loss with 4 pounds!! That's what can happen when you eat at a deficit and workout for 6 out of 7 days!!

    Guys, I'm a slacker. I haven't managed to weigh myself for this week yet. I'm FINALLY back home (the fam was driving me nuts), so I'll be weighing in tomorrow :s Also my scale battery died, so that was a problem.

    I definitely meant to track miles this month, but I'm fairly certain I've only ran 2 or 3 miles so far. Exercise is so hard to do at home! Thankfully, I am now reunited with my beloved gyms. I also start a proper workout class next week AND I'm pretty good about running when I'm on campus anyway.

    You are not a slacker....you just had an extra long Christmas vacation!! You seem to have a good plan in place to get yourself back into fitness and weight loss. You'll be fine!! I'll look for your weigh-in tomorrow.

    Almost two pounds, is more than a little, and with last week's huge loss, I wasn't sure you'd have any this week. So, well done!!!!

    Pretty sure last week was 169, but I'm not totally sure.
    YA GIRL GOT 167.8 TODAY.

    Pretty dang excited because I am a hot mess. I haven't managed to properly track in a couple weeks and my exercise has been rough. I bought some good stuff at the grocery store yesterday though, so that should help keep me on track. They just opened a new Aldi and I was abnormally excited. Let us all pray that their produce section doesn't go downhill :D

    Thanks for asking. I took yesterday and today off. It started to feel better yesterday but I didnt want to go to work and chance it so I stayed home today too. I got less than 500 steps yesterday, but am more on track today AND i logged all my food both days. Hoping the weigh in tomorrow isnt horible.

    MINI CHALLENGE
    DATE: Thursday, January 10, 2018
    Logged food: Yes
    Under calories: Yes
    Exercised: Yes - 2, 30 minute walks / 75 reps with my new 60 pound kettlebell. It’s heavy! :)
    Steps as of posting: 14,332

    Used the mapping feature for the first time with my Fitbit and phone. So cool to see the route and all the details such as pace, steps, heart rate, etc. I’m already planning out longer walks and where to go :) It’s so great for finding improvements in fitness instead of just scale wins. Maybe soon my pace is faster, distance longer, heart rate lower...
